 I'm gonna be honest, i didnt expect so many people to choose BOK, and was expecting even less it being in the first position. Its my favorite map, but the plane set never look too special to me. 
 Maybe i should play a few more campaigns and see whats up


For me, the big standouts in BoK’s plane set are mostly on the VVS side of things - the P-39 has a unique design and armament, the A-20 is a versatile medium bomber and ground attack aircraft (even more than the Pe-2 - the radial engines and somewhat heavier forward armament are basically begging you to shoot up some trucks on your way back from bombing a factory), the IL-2 mod. 1943 stands out from the others thanks to the .50 cal rear gun and PTABs, and the Yak 7 is the second most heavily armed Yak in the entire game - and I’d argue it’s a better dogfighter than the Yak 9T thanks to the higher rate of fire.

 

There’s also the collector’s Hs-129 for the Axis that came with the premium edition. I personally prefer using the Bf-110 G-2 for anything the 129 can do, but it’s still a really interesting and fun plane to use.

My preferences, in order:

  1. Bodenplatte
  2. Normandy
  3. FC Western Front
  4. Stalingrad
  5. Kuban
  6. Moscow

As an American, the Eastern front just doesn't capture my interest to the extent that the theaters my country fought in, do.

 

Give me a single PTO theater, and you'll never see me fly another Euromap.

Kuban for me.

Moscow. I highly rate Stalingrad too. Kuban never blew me away and, regardless of plane sets, Boddenplatte and FC seemed to be a backwards step in both map making and AI/ATC coms which I fear Normandy will repeat. I hope Im proved wrong.

Battle of Stalingrad, (presently). 

Remembered the excitement seeing this projects return.
